My student(Ibrahim) states " Sylvan's tutors teach the content well by breaking it down into simple and understandable concepts. The tutors are nice."
a wonderful experience and a learning experience for my son
Everyone is very friendly
The center kept us updated regularly, and we appreciated how transparent they were with progress. Scheduling was flexible, and the environment was always clean and focused.
The only downside was the cost — it’s a financial commitment. But for us, it was worth the investment, especially seeing how much happier and more motivated our child became.
Overall: 5/5 – Professional, effective, and confidence-building. Would highly recommend Sylvan to any parent who wants personalized academic support for their child.
Excellent tutoring and love how they focus on my kid needs.
Our daughter has really progressed since starting her curriculum. What we didn’t like was the last minute special having to worry how about how much to budget. That isn’t fair to the loyal customers and then requesting immediate down payment.
Since starting at Sylvan, my daughter has made significant progress in both English and math. We’ve noticed a boost in her confidence, and we absolutely love hearing her read with expression and improved pronunciation. Her math skills have also grown tremendously—she now completes her assignments independently, and when we check her work, most of her answers are correct. She truly enjoys going to Sylvan, and we appreciate the dedication and patience of the teachers and staff. I highly recommend this center for any child who needs extra support!
I love the fact the teachers at sylvan actually work with kids one on one. My kid is actually doing better with math this year and understands it better.
I enrolled my daughter at Sylvan to support her academic growth, and it’s been a fantastic experience. She loves going to the center, and I can see significant progress in her reading and writing skills—she reads exceptionally well for her age! Currently, we’re focusing on improving her math skills, and I’ve already noticed positive results within the first month of tutoring. The staff at Sylvan are incredibly kind and compassionate with the kids, creating a welcoming environment for learning. I highly recommend this center for any child who could benefit from academic support.
My son was very behind in reading and struggled w handwriting and phonics. In 1st grade, he wasn’t even able to read the early pre-reading level books. The staff were wonderful and patient with him! The breaks were perfect and I believe my son enjoyed meeting others there and having a chance to play a few games between sessions. They were able to explain things well and in a measurable way for parents to understand. It’s truly amazing how they’ve got it all figured out, down to a science. My son is now in 4th grade and loves to read! He reads chapter books and comic-type books, but he is reading at/slightly above his grade level now! Very very happy with our experience w sylvan! Grateful they are here and for all they do every day!!
You guys are great when it comes down to helping my child.
The staff at Sylvan Mechanicsburg are the best! Very knowledgeable, very kind, very patient, very understanding, very thorough and always willing to go the extra mile to help my daughter succeed. I recommend Sylvan to every parent. They can help no matter what the level.
We are very pleased with how our daughter receives a personalized approach to tutoring and preparing for the SAT exam under the guidance of the instructors at Sylvan!
It’s the simple fact that my child loves to go to tutoring and can’t wait to go back. My child struggles with math so to hear her talk about what she’s learning and explaining how to do whatever she learned makes my heart so happy.
Very nice.
My daughter has been taking the SAT prep and I’m the midst of the schedule she got hurt. Sylvan has adjusted the schedule and supported her to stay on schedule for her upcoming test! I appreciate the compassion and accommodation. She is learning a great deal and hasn’t been complain.. for a teenager that’s saying a lot. Her teachers have been pushing her and it will help her set good goals.
My kids love learning at Sylvan.
I am approximately half way through the course, and I feel like I am improving with my test scores. The teacher is very nice and patient. While it is not the fault of the teacher, I feel as though we are a bit rushed when going through the material as sometimes we have to skip practice problems in the course material that are designed to be completed during the sessions with the teacher. Perhaps they should have spread the material out more evenly and added an extra session to the course.
From first touch point all has been proceed in so professional, experienced and kind way.
Thank you very much for all!
John seems to be learning well and seems to enjoy coming. The teachers have been great to work with as well as the other staff.

Did a great job! My son improved on his SAT score.
I enjoy the regular monthly updated. It makes it easier to focus on those concepts at home.
Friendly staff and kids enjoy their time.
My daughter is excited about learning and looks forward to her time there weekly.
Great!
Exceptional hands on with qualified teachers. My son leaves and is excited about math when he gets in the car to tell me about everything he has done and learned. Would highly recommend!

Great staff, love how they work with my kid and give updates on progress.
